Hello everyone, I press that they are a neophyte of solidworks and 3d in general.
I tried to search the forum but I didn't find what I was looking for... I have long been trying to create a writing on a non-planar surface, that is, like a portion of sphere and I would like the extruded writing to have the same surface pattern.
the steps I have performed are as follows:
- half-section sketch with spline on front and revolution to create the "cupoletta"
- a new plane parallel to the upper floor detached of a 20mm
- 1mm cup offset surface above the dome itself
- then I used the function line of division with the sketch of the writing
- function deletes face and I have selected the faces of the dome excluding the writing
- then I used the thickening function for each letter
- eventually converting the initial sketch I reused the revolution function with the visa in the merge result box.
I found this method on the net... problem: when I gave the file to my friend for 3d printing told me that it was not possible to run it because there is a mistake. I performed the verification and in fact the function deletes face leaves me an open surface even if later the regenero. . .
Can you please advise me a different method to get the same result or suggest where I'm wrong? Thank you so much!
